Five Elements of a

Presentation



Notes

• Created for the speakers’ use• Only the speaker should see them during a presentation• Available to other speakers showing the same

presentation, but were never intended to be seen by the audience

• Ideally, Notes contain all of information a speaker needs for a dynamic presentation

• Notes may contain:• the full script of the presentation• detailed supporting information• anecdotes• presentation hints and cues

• May be included in handouts for the audience to read after the presentation



Handouts

• Created for the audience’s use

• May contain:– detailed information for the audience to read

after the presentation– An outline of the presentation with

suggestions for further reading

• Should never duplicate or interfere with the delivery of the presentation



Slides

• Visual media: created to visually enhance the audience’s experience

• Are audience support, not speaker support• Should never be used as a speaker’s crutch (or

teleprompter)• Should contain little or no text on slides • Words may appear on a slide, but should never be

presented or experienced as written text• If slides contain enough information to be self

explanatory, they should be presented without a speaker (Kiosk, CD or Web)



Presenter

• A presenter’s job is to present – not to read slides

• If the audience is reading text on slides or handouts, they are not listening to the presenter

• Communal reading of prepared text is neither an effective method of communication nor an effective teaching tool



Audience

• The audience is the only reason for a presentation to exist

• Every aspect of a presentation must be created with the audience foremost in mind– What concerns or needs do they have? – How will this information (product) address these

needs? – What presentation style will be most effective for

these people? – How will you engage the audience in the

conversation?
